Radicant, new work by Miranda Bellamy and Amanda Fauteux, creates an opportunity to observe our own expectations and preconceptions of plants and consider our reciprocal relationship with the more-than-human world. The exhibition invites us to look and listen carefully, both when experiencing the artwork in the gallery and in the vegetal world outside.

This exhibition celebrates Bellamy and Fauteux’s Frances Hodgkins Fellowship. A highly anticipated aspect of the annual Hocken exhibition programme, Radicant acknowledges the Fellows' year-long engagement with Ōtepoti Dunedin’s close-knit creative community.

Miranda Bellamy and Amanda Fauteux are partners and collaborators who share time living within the traditional territory of Mi’kma’ki, known as Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada, and in Ōtepoti (Dunedin), Aotearoa (New Zealand). Through interdisciplinary outcomes, their work considers human entanglements with other animals, plants, fungi, and minerals, and is informed by site-specific research. They have exhibited their work in Aotearoa, Canada, and the USA. They were the 2024 Frances Hodgkins Fellows at Ōtākou Whakaihu Waka the University of Otago in Ōtepoti, Aotearoa.
